Jason, what you could do is release this balanced circlotron to drive low impeadance high current phones, and high impedance cans...and get this...use it as an optional pre-amp into the End Game amp - and there is your hybridised End Game amp.

This means the End Game can be hybridised optionally on the same platform, reducing development costs of a separate Hybrid Flagship.

From reading his two posts, he just seemed enthusiastic about his ideas. Not actually demanding... Just my 2 cents.

Your probably right. I must have been in a foul mood this morning and looking through that lens. At the time I felt defensive for Jason as I bet he gets a TON of "advice" on what to do with his products. No harm meant.

Alright, I have a little inquiry involving the Lyr. Has anyone done the speaker smoke magic trick?? I really don't want to do it with my HD650s or 701's so I'm just trying to think what would be cool...

Wait, you mean my headphones might blow up?Dood, 6 watts is more than enough to let the magic smoke out of most headphones. Lyr packs a serious punch, and we expect that you’re grown-up enough to use it with respect. Lyr has a 20-second slow-start and fast-acting turnoff output muting relay, but we still recommend caution, especially if you’re tube-rolling. We will not be responsible for headphones damaged by Lyr.
